= Init script for Debian = This is an init script for Debian. Save as {{{/etc/init.d/django}}} and run the following command: {{{ update-rc.d django defaults }}} By default the script expects Django sites in {{{/var/lib/django/}}}. It will store PID files in {{{/var/run/django}}}. These directories must already exist. The settings may be overridden in a settings file located at {{{/etc/defaults/django}}}. You must at least set the {{{DJANGO_SITES}}} variable. An example is included below. == {{{/etc/init.d/django}}} == {{{ #! /bin/sh ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: FastCGI servers for Django # Required-Start: networking # Required-Stop: networking # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: S 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Start FastCGI servers with Django. # Description: Django, in order to operate with FastCGI, must be started # in a very specific way with manage.py.
